Hello. I am looking to apply to the CT State Community College - Capital Nursing program for the 2025-2026 semester! I have completed the required pre-req's for admission, and completing additional core but not required courses (Ex. A&P II) when the Fall semester opens next week. I'm likely going to apply to more than one selective admissions program to be sure I follow the destiny meant for me.
I'm wondering what everyone's stats are as we all are getting ready to apply to the selective admissions program. Mine are...
A&PI : A
TEAS: 79.3%
Nursing GPA: 3.7
Happy studying, and selective admissions application time fellow students!! I hope this thread proves to be as productive as others have in years past 🙂
Guys, first of all, congratulations for those who go accepted and don't give up for the ones who did not.
I'm starting my prereqs this Summer and I'm planning to apply for the nursing program next year. I saw that the mandatory classes before applying are just Anatomy & Physiology, English Comp, College & Career Success, and Statistics.
I've noticed a lot of people are also taking other courses like Microbiology before applying. My question is:
Does taking more nursing classes (besides the 4 required ones) before applying actually increase your chances of getting in? Or is it okay if I only take the 4 prereqs before applying?
I work full time, so I'm trying to be realistic. If I get an A+ in the 4 required prereqs, my nursing GPA would still be a 4.0, right?
Thanks for any advice!
You don't need anything besides the required ones. I applied while still taking A&P 2 and I'm taking micro this Summer. However, it'd probs be smart to take the harder classes (AP2, Micro) before the program actually starts to decrease workload. In the document for accepted students it even recommends to take the classes before the program starts.
